When Bob Nielsen wrote, I replied:
Thanks for the reply. There were myriad things (fvwm* among them) that
wouldn't load as they depended on xlib6g which wasn't available.
I ran and re-ran install and config and remove phases until my remaining
errors were minimized. I've since added a few more packages, but there
remain a large group of things which depend on xlib6g which isn't
available. I remain very loathe to re-boot until I can get xlib6g.
